Hey all,

Being a Black Woman, is it a strength or a weakness? This was the question we asked ourselves. With all of the ill crimes that warrant a response of “No, it is a dreadful thing to be a black woman”, I would have to disagree. Find out more listen to our year end show on 12/27/07.

Oh, by the way…. a note on the content of this show:

1st. -Countdown to things that happen to Black Women in ‘07: We are sticking to our #1….it is a big surprise.

2nd. -The business segment, Networking: The second most important element to the success of your business besides you. From your relationships with your vendors, your clients/potential clients, civic organizations, and non-triditional internet based network groups. Don’t be the reason your business stops. Don’t have time to go out into the community. Try this. Your business is about serving real people so try some real people networks like:

Myspace
FaceBook
ymib.com <—-(Jaha found this one, it is my new fav)

Also mentioned: Love of Hair…

The following is a comment from the local City Paper. The comment is in regards to 5 single mothers and 25 children facing eviction from government housing because of the crimes some of their children were said to have committed. Dehumanization is really in effect here....

PLEASE READ----

"The forces which seek to destroy the black community today are largely internal. I refer, of course, to the disintegration of the black family and the concomitant social ills of crime, poverty, illegitimacy, and academic failure. And the disintegration of the black family is at the core of the eviction controversy at Gadsden Green."

"As an MUSC employee, that area west of Rt 17 would be better utilized as privately-owned, tax generating, student and employee housing for medical residents, as well as CofC students and faculty. Right now it's a blight which we avoid for the obvious reasons, and we refer to the highway as the "moat" to keep out the riff raff.

There must be a more suitable location for this population up the peninsula or in North Chuck.
